The Jetty has all the ingredients of a forgettable British crime-by-numbers drama destined for the graveyard slot of Monday nights in July. Yet, clunky dialogue and comedy names aside, a parallel narrative charting two teenage girls’ relationship with wayward older man Malachy (House of the Dragon’s Tom Glynn-Carney) is intriguingly ambiguous, providing enough tension to keep viewers guessing.

While there's much to appreciate about The Jetty, there are some elements that don't quite work. Riz has a parody-like quality to her, a consequence of how she is both written and performed, and the wider dialogue attempts poeticism, but falls flat in places, with characters sounding mannered or overwrought.

It fails on the basics, which isn’t Jones’s fault: badly lit and with dialogue that is sometimes hard to decipher. But the plot in the opening hour is such a mish-mash that I twice checked to see if I had started watching a later episode by mistake. Then there are the female-led drama tropes.
